the life and musings of a kinky slut
No one is a special special snowflake. No matter what you may believe, what your parents taught you, your teachers, your mentors, or whoever wanted to get into your pants. You are not a special special snowflake. I say this as much to anyone else as to myself. For a time, I have been left […]
Recently I read a blog entry by my friend Graydancer asking what metaphors do we live by and how those metaphors contribute to our lives. His, unfortunately, was of a crumbling house built on love. Mine, unfortunately, were not much better.Cabin BitchThe first metaphor that came to mind was Cabin Bitch. My title, so earned […]
Twice in the past month I’ve almost run into the Ex. He is still employed by a company I occasionally work for. Both times it was when I was driving, dropping off rental equipment, and, if I had lagged at the rental house for but a few minutes, we would have interacted. It’s been two […]
Most of the time I’m pretty happy with my life. Most of the time, I feel like I’m doing what I want, living a life that I love. Most of the time things are good. And then there are days like today, when my life feels lacking, when all I want is to find the […]
I made a rule for myself for this year that I will, finally, break. It took two full months, but it is indeed time. It was my plan to take every Sunday off in 2012. I thought if I did this I would devote at least four hours of the day to working on my almost […]
I often equate my job with being a hustler or a whore. Since I am a freelancer, I don’t work full time for any one company, though I pick and choose my gigs carefully. I work for about half a dozen different entities, going where the money is. Company X is my favorite. They pay […]
Recently I hurt a friend. There was a miscommunication. I jumped to conclusions. I went into protect myself mode. And, in the process, I let them down. For that I apologized. We have since reconciled and all is well with our friendship. But as soon as things were better again, I began wondering why things […]
Recently I was offered a full time job with a company I like. The work would’ve been nothing difficult and it would’ve paid me more than I made in all of 2010 by about five thousand dollars. I turned it down. For nearly the whole of my professional life, I have worked as a freelancer. […]
Recently I acted like a well adjusted emotionally aware adult. I received a request from a friend, to which I immediately and gladly said yes. But, as soon as I gave my agreement, there was a nag in the back of my throat, a little pop in my brain. I felt something, I wasn’t quite […]
Once again my friend Graydancer wrote something that got me thinking; I know, shocking. Read his entry, then read my thoughts which came to mind when I pondered “What recharges me?”. – When I’m driving, alone, often on my way to see friends, but occasionally on my way to work, I’ll just sing. I’ll sing […]
